Nutrition is our mission
We are passionate about researching the best nutrition for your pets. We enjoy helping new and existing customers to source the most suitable pet food for their individual pet needs, its lifestyle and its health. We believe in a more natural approach to pet nutrition, and would love a holistic vet to be part of our team in the near future.
Our values
We care about animals’ health, nutrition and wellbeing above all else.
This business is our life: we value each and every customer.
We value honesty: we will not sell a product that we would not give to our own animals. This does not mean we claim to know everything, it means that we will try our hardest to find out the truth about products.
We are always looking for ways to improve our product range – as each animal is an individual, what works for one may not work for another.
We stock as many ethically-sourced food products as we can.
